1... 2... 3... Sound, Graphics & TV
[05 September 2001]

Elbox Computer is pleased to inform that the Mediator Multimedia CD will be available from our distributors beginning with tomorrow.

Software developed by ELBOX for the Mediator busboard line enclosed in the Mediator Multimedia CD is prepared in a way aimed at obtaining the maximum versatility in supporting various models of PCI cards.

The Sound Blaster PCI128 card working in the DMA mode loads the Amiga processor when playing back uncompressed music files much less than any other sound card connected through Zorro II or the clock port. This feature, combined
with high playback quality and flexibility of configuration resulting from the number of mixed inputs/outputs makes Sound Blaster PCI128 the best sound card offered at any time for Amiga computers.

Software developed by ELBOX for the Mediator busboard line enclosed in the Mediator Multimedia CD is prepared in a way aimed at obtaining the maximum versatility in supporting various models of PCI cards.
What we do is always following the basic ELBOX software motto of:
UNIVERSALITY and PERFORMANCE.

Please find the list of TV, sound and graphic cards supported by the software in the Mediator Multimedia CD.
